Album Description Novelist H. G. Bissinger's story about a high school football team in Texas went to the big screen with Billy Bob Thornton in the lead role. The score and background music was largely composed for the film by indie faves Explosions in the Sky, with a little help from Daniel Lanois, David Torn, and Bad Company. Producer Brian Reitzell has gone against convention in designing musical atmospheres for the film that don't conform either to the martial music generally associated with football or the C&W associated with Texas. Instead, he opted for a more autumnal, introspective sound that serves as a perfect backdrop for the film, but also stands up on its own without benefit of any other audio-visual cues.

CD ReviewsNot What I Expected Daniel Mcvey | Seattle, WA USA | 10/11/2008 (2 out of 5 stars) "I bought this cd as a fan of Explosions in the Sky, not a fan of the movie. A lot of the songs on this soundtrack are only chopped up/switched around versions of the band's full length songs from other releases. It doesn't have the same raw energy that the other releases do, and it's very over produced. I wouldn't recommend this to fans of the band, unless you are a die hard fan and absolutely have to own every EITS release." Powerful, Inspirational, and Emotional Warren Bruhl | Glencoe, IL United States | 12/09/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "I absolutely love the movie and the song Sonho Dourado at the end of the movie always touches me in special ways. The movie, the music, and the emotional story of these young men should be seen by young and old. The music beautifully helped to weave the story of these young men. Great MUSIC, GREAT MOVIE, GREAT STORY! Dr. Warren Bruhl Glencoe, IL Pediatric and Family Chiropractic Physician" "Be Perfect" Luis | Harlingen,TX USA | 03/11/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "For anyone who grew up in Texas, this film should strike a chord. This soundtrack which serves as a calling card for the group, Explosions In The Sky" captures the highs and lows and the ghostly whispers West Texas. My only gripe is that The Stooges' "I wanna be your dog" ZZ tops "Just Got paid" along with "New Noise" by Refused were left off, perhaps for fear of unbalancing this great soundtrack. At any rate this soundtrack should have a place in your collection."
